Elbow Bursitis or something else? (See pictures)

I got bursitis on my right knee.
I spent 8.5 years as a bus mechanic, and if I had to kneel down on the concrete floor for anything, I tend to go on my right knee because my right hip is bad, so I use my left leg to get back up.

It doesn't hurt at all, but my wife got concerned and told me to ask the doc. The doc said, "That's bursitis, it may or may not go away, the pressure on your knee, over time, caused it, and if it doesn't hurt we leave it alone."

Hope this helps.

You are not alone!

I quit using my armrests because my arms were getting achey, then I read somwhere that the road vibration transferred to the seat MAY cause that. My arms feel less achey now.

 

Looks like baker’s elbow to me. Just stop putting pressure on it for about a month should go away.

 

Might be a good idea to have it looked at. I lost a brother-in-law to cancer that started as a lump on his arm that he never had checked...
Not trying to scare you, but...
His was a lump under his bicep that didn't bother him so he ignored it but turned out to be a tumor that eventually spread.
I have another brother-in-law who is battling cancer to this day. A few years ago he had a lump on his forearm that had to be chopped out because it was cancerous

CANCER SUCKS

 

Baker's cyst is sorta like a hernia where a pouch with fluid gets out through a barrier it's not supposed to go through. it's not painful, and I didn't even notice mine until I got a physical (mine's behind the knee). Bursitis is more like tennis elbow where the fluid inside or outside the joint gets inflamed. It's usually painful, and it can cause infection inside the joint and ruin the joint in the process.

Maybe a baker's cyst, maybe bursitis, maybe a hematoma,

Have it looked at. Ain't nobody on here that even stayed at a Holiday Inn last night.....

 

I had the exact symptom that your picture shows. After a couple of months I was going to go to the doctor to see about getting it drained, and then one morning I noticed that it had just gone away.

Not much help for you, but that's my experience.

 

Have someone hit it with a book!

 

AFTER they've spent the night at a Holiday Inn Express

 

That woud be implying that truck drivers read

 

Looks like we've finally found a use for the Rand McNally atlas.
